We present a short, self-contained, relatively simple proof to the growth dichotomy of linear groups. The proof depends on the fixed point property of amenable groups, and the main tool is Furstenberg's Lemma regarding measures on projective spaces.

We investigate word growth and structure of certain infinite families of finite groups. This work is motivated by results of Bass, Wolf, Milnor, Gromov, and Grigorchuk on the word growth and structure of infinite groups. We define word growth for families of finite groups, and prove structure theore
